Hi everyone! New user and novice excel user here trying to figure our a solution to a problem. I included a video instead of typing out the question here because it's kind of complicated with the concatenate functions that I'm using. The end-goal of what I'm trying to accomplish is based on a handful of criteria.
The video explains what I'm what I'm trying to do. It's complicated to me being as it's actually multiple subset of things within one.
I tried using the XL2BB function had difficulty getting these tables to transfer over probably since a lot of the equations refer to other parts of the workbook. Again, link to the file and video provided below.

tdlr.... not sure if IF/rank are suitable for what I'm trying to accomplish.
if =>2 sentences are true, then ";additionally," would be used at the end of every sentence proceeding the last sentence in sequence.
if =>3 sentences are true, then ";lastly," must be used on the beginning of the last sentence.
if =>1 sentence is the last in sequence, a "." will be used in the end instead of "; additionally,".

Any help is vastly appreciated!! 🙏

I have partially solved this using data above on the table and using a lengthier than desired way, however, still running into the expected issue and will repost a new topic..

Thank you!
